Wrist watches. Post pics, if you EDC one!

Thanks Jeansy. I’ve been sending mine to an authorized Tag repair center in New Jersey for a cleaning, new seals, and a battery replacement every 4 years or so. I know they’re reliable. They always send a detailed report on the condition such as scratches, etc. They even told my the dial has faded over the years. To be honest, I’ve never noticed that. I’m confident they can fix it without any evidence that it has been repaired.

Thanks for kind words guys, love the TAG’s , very smart
This has been a daily beater watch for many years…………in fact i cant remember exactly but it must be 10yrs or not far off! Through thick and thin, working on my 4x4 to gardening to in the sea………Scratched and beat up, gives it personality, swapped out the battery the other year……………….

Looks like this now

For value, cant fault rotary so i got another for beater duty. Well i cant wear a watch in work, but outside of, wear one all the time so its every day wear uses. Some i just wear more than others really, dont have any for best or for special occasions. As i am fairly clumsy………i cant invest too much into a beater watch. It would burn my head out scratching a super expensive watch so i would only keep it in the box. So i just have a hand full i wear when i want basically.
Another newer daily wear which got a couple of marks on straight away.

I never heard of that brand before. Definitely my style for sure, especially the newer looking one. I’ll do some research on them. Who knows, I may end up buying one

Thanks Ven. I like your latest model better than the ones I’m seeing on their website. Do you have a model number for that ?

Here is the model atbglenn
ROTARY AQUASPEED AGB00074/W/04

Copy and paste may bring some up yourside

Ebay 301979802973

Ven, thanks so much! I’ll order it next week from ebay. Only $69.99! Great deal for such a fine looking watch.

Yes, very good value that, they usually go for around £100-£120 ish in the UK for that model back a couple of years or so. Certainly worth $70 if you like the look. Here you get a life time guarantee as long as you send the watch off for a service every 3yrs and get it stamped. Its dolphin waterproof, by that it means you can swim and dive all day.

No i dont work for them :wink: Having had many different(1/2 decent) brands, many steamed up or somehow let water in………….these have never missed a beat at all and one has had a real hard life.

Very nice field watch, looks neat, that’s the nice thing with watches even the not so expensive ones can be great buys.

When looking for the readeel on ali i found this one (Tissot visodate lookalikish) that i also might be tempted to order:

Thx for the info on the Seiko 5 Atbglenn.

Here is a love hate brand, or as far as i have read anyway, due mainly to crazy rrp prices. Seems a nice enough made watch though

I I use to dive quite bit so have always had some type of divers watch.

Wife has the same but black and stainless and 40mm both have ETA movements. I have another in black that's quartz if I do happen to dive.

I have several. Always got a good price. The oldest is about 6 years and no problems.

Thats good to know Terry, thanks for the info and i really like that!! Very smart :+1:

I've owned all prices of watches including a black and stainless Rolex Submariner. And these Invicta's espicially if the have a swiss movement be it automatic or quartz have always given me good service. Probably got 12 and have had as many as 25 or 30.

I'm to watches what most of you are to these lights. lol I'm learning but still have a way to go. I'm a quick study lol

I have always enjoyed watches Terry, even from younger years casio watches(you remember those great calculator ones from the 80’s?). Then i went through a good few years of going naked…………watch-less. The rotary(chrono) served me that well i never really took much interest for years until recently. Then decided to get a fresh one without the beat up look….

Flashlights is another story, thinned my heard now to around 50, most modded or custom with the minority being factory. Be it drivers,leds,triples,quads,titanium to bare ano. Pretty much have most my illuminating needs covered. Boys and their toys………….all fun :+1: ……………and practical of course :smiley:

This is my current EDC:

Lol drives my wife nuts but she's a sweetie and puts up with it. My guitars is where she starts drawing the line. 2 years ago I bought a Martin. wanted one all my life. She said you've earned it, biy it. lol then she saw the invoice where I ordered it. lol that look was pricless.

Ha ha, classic………we only live once, life is too short for regrets! Luckily i dont have too many illnesses, or ones that are expensive(i know watches can be one of the worst), i dont have the money for it to become that way :money_mouth_face:

One i got a while back

Another addition, citizen this time and polished case/bracelet

Have a 009 on the way, thats off Rach and the kids for xmas though so wont have till then. Reason for a 009 over a 007(may get at a later date anyway) is simply the pepsi bezel grew on me from when i first looked into one. Kind of like the blue face and bezel to break up the normal black basically……….
